Voyeurism, obsession and the darker side of sexual desire combine to entwine the lives of a number of disparate characters in contemporary London.
Dale is a Community Surveillance Officer - a 'watcher'. Employed by the government, hated by the population, he monitors citizens of London, looking down upon their contemptuous actions, Godlike. But he cannot stop himself from watching one mysterious woman, and the succession of men she brings down that alleyway, needing to know what's she's doing down there, needing to meet her face to face.
Chris sits in his living room, quietly despising his father, wondering when he will meet someone that he can love. He agonises about his fragmenting family, about his sister who he loves more than anyone else, knowing that there's something not quite right about her.
Curiosity wins out and both characters are drawn deeper into a tangled web of voyeurism, obsession and sexual desire that will culminate in them finally meeting in a shocking finale.
